Read full description

Laura wanted an app with a heart, a bus and a bunny, and wanted it to change colors. After working with her in that and some extra changes she wanted added, we created her App! We are a multicultural family, so we added the languages that surround us. The code is public in: https://github.com/asierraserna/Laura
